Published: June 2020

We report the case of an 81-year-old man who presented with severe right hip pain and reduced physical function secondary to a large spontaneous median sacral artery pseudoaneurysm measuring 83.5 × 55.4 mm. The patient had no history of recent trauma, infective or inflammatory disease, or any recent procedures. The patient was taking apixaban for atrial fibrillation. Percutaneous coil embolization was used to occlude the pseudoaneurysm. This case describes a novel disease, spontaneous median sacral artery pseudoaneurysm, presenting with hip pain.

Objective: The administration of amiodarone or lidocaine is recommended during the resuscitation of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients presenting with defibrillation-refractory or recurrent ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia. Our objective was to use 'target trial emulation' methodology to compare the outcomes of patients who received amiodarone or lidocaine during resuscitation.

Methods: Adult, non-traumatic OHCA patients in the ESO Data Collaborative 2018-2023 datasets who experienced OHCA prior to EMS arrival, presented with a shockable rhythm, and received amiodarone or lidocaine during resuscitation were evaluated for inclusion.

Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is an uncommon condition defined by the compression of neurovascular structures within the thoracic outlet. When conservative management strategies fail to alleviate symptoms, surgical decompression becomes necessary. The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the efficacy and safety of regional anesthesia (RA) using spontaneous breathing in contrast to general anesthesia (GA) for patients undergoing surgical intervention for TOS.

Comparison of the Effects of Sugammadex Recommended Dose (2 mg/kg) and Fixed Dose of 200 mg on the Reversal of Moderate Neuromuscular Block and Recovery Profile in Adult Patients.

: Neuromuscular blocking agents are essential to ensure optimal surgical conditions during general anesthesia. Sugammadex, a selective binding agent, is widely used to reverse neuromuscular blockade. While weight-based dosing (2 mg/kg for moderate blockade) is recommended, many clinicians administer a fixed dose of 200 mg in clinical practice, potentially leading to overdosing.

Prenatally Diagnosed Cardiac Tumors and Tuberous Sclerosis Complex: A Single-Center Experience.

Children (Basel)

January 2025

Department of Pediatrics, Division of Neonatology and Neonatal Intensive Medicine, University Hospital Centre Zagreb, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia.

Background/objectives: Cardiac rhabdomyoma (CR), the most frequently occurring fetal cardiac tumor, is often an early marker of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). This study evaluates outcomes of fetuses with prenatally diagnosed cardiac tumors managed at a single tertiary center.

Methods: Medical records of fetuses diagnosed with cardiac tumors between 2009 and 2024 were retrospectively reviewed.

Marker-Less Video Analysis of Infant Movements for Early Identification of Neurodevelopmental Disorders.

Diagnostics (Basel)

January 2025

Research Coordination and Support Service, Istituto Superiore di Sanità, Viale Regina Elena 299, 00161 Rome, Italy.

The early identification of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) in infants is crucial for effective intervention and improved long-term outcomes. Recent evidence indicates a correlation between deficits in spontaneous movements in newborns and the likelihood of developing NDDs later in life. This study aims to address this aspect by employing a marker-less Artificial Intelligence (AI) approach for the automatic assessment of infants' movements from single-camera video recordings.
